BRIBURN – Architecture for Life
Architects & Building Designers in Tenants Harbor.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 February 2015
“We took on Briburn for a substantial new residential project on the basis of their website and their stated philosophy, and a 2 hour interview/discussion. As our first and only choice, they clearly stood out among a dozen other architects in the area. We are in the midst of planning now and the process is almost painless. Their guidance is gentle and considerate; their knowledge of "green" building practices is vast. I'm eagerly looking forward to the next steps in this adventure with Briburn.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars22 August 2016
“We never intended to live in a dream house. Good, functional, and thoughtful architecture would have been fine. But our home on coastal Maine is so beautifully designed that the builder uses it to advertise to clients! Working with Dave Johnson at Skaala was nothing less than a superb experience. Through the design phase until the last drop of paint, Dave was a reassuring presence. When we moved in we already knew every corner of the house intimately and three years later it continues to give us pleasure and a true sense of home.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars11 July 2013
“I have worked with Tobias professionally on a number of his projects. He is a very creative architect, stretching the imaginations of the clients he works with to realize more than just their initial vision. His approach is professional and yet flexible. The homes he has designed are spectacular yet very comfortable and grounded. Toby has made the many clients I've had the privilege of working with very happy. I fully recommend his services and the chance to work with a great architect.”

Valliere Design Studio
Architects & Building Designers in Tenants Harbor.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 March 2017
“Marcel is an extraordinary designer. We hired him to completely renovate our old kitchen and his design, communication, time frame, and just wonderful personal nature far exceeded our already high expectations. Far beyond just looking to finish a job and get out, Marcel really dug into our desires for the immediate and future functionality of the kitchen and incorporated our specific needs into the layout and flow of the space. I would recommend him with absolute confidence to anyone looking for both a "Wow" outcome and for a space that is customized to your own lifestyle and needs.”
John Morris Architects
Architects & Building Designers in Tenants Harbor.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars13 March 2016
“John created a wonderful Maine Beachouse for us to entertain and eventually retire in. Working with strict EPA limitations he created, instead of a typical rectangular home facing south, a home of four staggered rectangles facing the southwestern ocean views. On the main floor, one is awed by the views and entertainment space but is unaware that there is a whole other wing on the main floor for our master bedroom and office. The second floor has its own entertainment space, bedrooms and a screened in room for our large family and visitors. John's tastes are of deep rich architectural details in continuity with modern design with a Maine flavor, from curved nautical doors to copper roofing. John is very confident in his work but also listens to our thoughts. When the DEP refused to allow outer decking on the upper floor we suggested to move a bathroom to an existing reading room and create a screened in room. We were all thrilled with John's redesign. John met deadlines , was on budget and was excellent working with town and DEP officers.”

An architect or building designer in Tenants Harbor, ME can transform your needs and desires into a visual concept and habitable structure. They will help you determine what is possible in terms of your land and the budget you have, and then work with you to plan a home design that best caters to your lifestyle.

Architects and building designers have an extensive knowledge of architectural designs and trends, as well as construction methods and building materials, and are well versed in seeing the ‘bigger picture’. Depending on the architecture firm you hire, their scope of work can span project management and sustainable design for your renovation, to the selection of furniture and finishes. So whether you’re building from scratch, adding an extension or renovating your Tenants Harbor, ME home, engage an architect or building designer to make your dream home a reality.

How do I find the best architect for my home design project?


It is best to hire a home architect or building designer who will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. The architect is often the first person you will hire for your project. If necessary, they might also help you select and hire Tenants Harbor, ME general contractors, which can include builders, engineers and landscape architects. Interior architects are also involved in negotiating contracts for all involved participants. It is for these reasons that it is extremely important for you to have a good relationship with the residential architect you hire. He or she can be the tie-breaking vote between you and the general contractor and can be your biggest advocate during the construction process.

As far as the process goes, the architecture firm that you choose will start with concept drawings and finish with construction drawings and documents. Some firms even design with 3D renderings and videos, but that should not be assumed. One of the most important duties of an architect is project management – that is, to serve as managers and supervise most aspects of construction, as well as facilitate communication between all other contractors.

It is very important to hire the right professional for the job. Remember that the most well-known or established architect or building designer might not provide the best architectural services for your needs. It all comes down to the individual project. Research and ask people whose work you like for recommendations. It's important to have an idea of the style of architecture you prefer, as well as the amount you would like to spend. Architects are natural problem solvers. They will assess the entire situation and help you to solve your problems too. Don't settle for a single company too early. Call and interview a few. Make sure that you feel like your personalities will mesh well and that you like their professional perspective.

  • What is your fee structure?
  • What does the cost include?
